bwfc_sue Posted September 9, 2006 Author Posted September 9, 2006 Thing is...I haven't made any transactions on that date for that amount, do I persue it with my bank or just put it down to dodgy mail as Smiley advised?

Carlos Posted September 9, 2006 Posted September 9, 2006 It's obviously a phishing attempt, delete and forget. http://www.visaeurope.com/personal/onlines...verifiedbyvisa/ Use the above link and it will take you to a page that explains it. Seems like a pukka service offered by Visa for secure shopping online. Completely and utterly wrong, even dangerous advice. If you haven't got a clue what you are talking about, it's best to keep quiet in future. The clue is that it isn't even addressed to you by name, Banca D'Andorra, give me a frikking break.
